This Christmas, we are aiming to deliver 2,000 festive Smile Hampers for the seriously ill children we support and their siblings. Each one is thoughtfully filled with gifts chosen to match a child’s interests, passions and favourite things.
Our Smile Hampers are created to bring a moment of joy to families facing the challenges of serious illness. Filled with treats, creative activities, toys, books and sensory items, each hamper provides practical ways for families to spend time together and take a break from the pressures of treatment. More than just presents, they show families that they are not on their own and that people are thinking of them this Christmas.
To reach our goal of 2,000 Smile Hampers, we need to source more than 10,000 gifts in total. It’s a huge undertaking and one we can only achieve with the generosity and kindness of our incredible supporters.
By donating a gift, you can help fill our Smile Hampers with items that bring joy, comfort to children spending their Christmas in hospital or undergoing treatment. One of the easiest ways to help is by choosing a gift from our bespoke Amazon Gift List, which you can view here. Anything you purchase will be sent directly to our team and packed straight into a Smile Hamper, ready to be delivered to a child in time for Christmas.
If you are a company or business, we would be so grateful for your support. We are in real need of larger quantities of gifts or financial donations that allow us to buy the items we know children will love. If you can help, please get in touch with us at fundraising@spreadasmile.org and our team will be delighted to chat.
Please do take a look at our gift list or contact the team to find out how you can help spread joy and laughter to seriously ill children this festive season. Thank you so much for your support.
